Strategic Plan

The draft of the Strategic Plan was sent out by President Ryan Lee (4/23/24). 

Ryan invites you to contribute your thoughts on the attached draft, as well as, take a stab at what our Plattsburgh Rotary Club's values and vision statement should be. 
 

On Monday, May 20th, starting at 12pm, the Board will meet at MHAB to review feedback and begin work toward a final draft. All club members are welcome to attend and participate. Feel free to contact Ryan Lee directly with your feedback or any questions you may have.

The RYLA Conference is scheduled for 5/24-5/26 at RKY Camp in Parham, Ontario. 
To send a student to RYLA, there are several steps our club must follow. If you would like to be part of the RYLA committee, please Ryan to confirm your interest. We will set up an initial meeting to organize and take action toward the necessary steps of selecting a student (or two) who can attend.
